Tacoma School of The Arts - Admissions Process

Admissions Process

Up until the 2012-2013 school year, SOTA only accepted incoming Sophomores, and beginning that year, a Freshman class was admitted to the school along with the Sophomore class. Starting in the 2013-2014 school year, SOTA will only be accepting incoming Freshmen. The School accepts 115 in-district students and 35 out-of-district students. Students first attend an information night during the fall or early winter. At the information night they schedule an appointment for a "community interview." At the interview students are interviewed by a SOTA student, a community member and a parent of a student. They must provide their portfolio and all of its contents at the interview.

Famous quotes containing the word process:

    Healthy parenting is nothing if not a process of empowerment. As we help to raise our children’s self-esteem, we also increase their personal power. When we encourage them to be confident, self-reliant, self-directed, and responsible individuals, we are giving them power.
    Louise Hart (20th century)
